These novels have been adapted into 10 short chapters that will
excite the reluctant reader as well as the enthusiastic one. Key
words are defined and used in context. Multiple-choice questions
require the student to recall specific details, sequence the
events, draw inferences from story context, develop another name
for the chapter, and choose the main idea. Let the Classics
introduce Kipling, Stevenson, and H.G. Wells. Your students will
embrace the notion of Crusoe's lonely reflections, the
psychological reactions of a Civil War soldier at
Chancellorsville, and the tragedy of the Jacobite Cause in 18th
Century Scotland. In our society, knowledge of these Classics is
a cultural necessity. Improves fluency, vocabulary and
comprehension.
